Done Deal – Poland EURO 2024 Star To Join Inter Milan From Roma | OneFootball

Wingback Nicola Zalewski is set to join Inter Milan from Roma.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the clubs are ironing out the final details of a loan deal.

In the last few days of the January transfer window, Inter have set their sights on Roma wingback Nicola Zalewski.

The Poland international is the player that the Nerazzurri have lined up to replace Tajon Buchanan. Buchanan has joined Villarreal on loan for the second half of the season.

At 23 years of age, Inter see Zalewski as the right age profile to bolster their squad.

Moreover, the Roma wingback’s versatility is key. Like Buchanan, he can play on either flank, and is comfortable in both the attacking and defensive phases.

Inter To Sign Nicola Zalewski From Roma

Inter have been pushing to sign Zalewski for the past few days now.

Roma had been hoping to offload the 23-year-old once and for all. They had looked close to an agreement with Marseille.

However, Inter’s entrance into the race has changed things. Zalewski wants to stay in Serie A, and his priority is to join the Nerazzurri.

Zalewski will extend his contract with Roma, as his current deal runs out at the end of June.

Then, everything will be in place for the Pole to join Inter.
